7,488 ÷ 24 = ? The student uses the standard abacus division algorithm: estimate quotient digit, multiply, subtract, shift, repeat. Example:
25.6 + 3.74 – 12.89 = ? Here, aligning decimal points on the abacus (usually fixing the unit rod) is critical. Below is a representative set of 10 questions (abridged from typical full 60-question paper). soal sempoa advance 1
